Perry Como's Kraft Music Hall. October 18, 1961. With Mitchell Ayres' Orchestra. From the 1947 Stage musical "Allegro". Music by Richard Rodgers and lyrics by Oscar Hammerstein II.
I love Perry Como. He can sing so beautifully thank you for showing his remarkable talent he was and continues to be a treasure for many of us who had the fortune of seeing his Saturday night programs each week
A fellow needs a girl to sit by his side At the end of a weary day To sit by his side and listen to him talk And agree with the things he'll say A fellow needs a girl to hold in his arms When the rest of the world goes wrong To hold in his arms and know that she believes That her fellow is wise and strong When things go right and his job's well done He wants to share the prize he's won If no one shares and no one cares Where's the fun of a job well done or a prize you've won? A fellow needs a home, his own kind of home But to make this dream come A fellow needs a girl, his own kind of girl My kind of girl is you A fellow needs a girl, his own kind of girl My kind of girl is you
Are you familiar with the Welsh actor and singer John Owen-Jones? He is unbelievable! He kinda reminds of Perry, although he's a tenor but he sings some classic standard songs. He sounds like an angel but with power and and so charming. He's a very talented actor as well.
What a beautiful song. I’ve never heard it. If only it were true. 💗 p.s. Where can I find this recording? I only see Frank Sinatra. I found it… How did I miss this gem? 🥹
